04 Jun 19 - 05:34 AM (#3995204) Subject: RE: Rambling Sid Rumpo cassettes From: beachcomber Well Dave, I used to get such a kick from hearing Kenneth Williams perform as "Ramblin' Sid" and although I made several very poor reel to reel tapes of some of those BBC Light Programmes, I never was aware that Williams had made his own tapes for sale. I live in Ireland so I wouldn't want to hold you to your offer unless you enclose some connection to a charity to which I could make a donation ON YOUR BEHALF ? How does that sound ? |
04 Jun 19 - 07:19 AM (#3995211) Subject: RE: Rambling Sid Rumpo cassettes From: Dave the Gnome Perfect, Beachcomber. PM me your name and address and I will post them tomorrow. I am not fussed at all about a donation being on my behalf. Just drop a bit into your favourite charity if you are happy with them. Dave |

05 Jun 19 - 03:44 AM (#3995289) Subject: RE: Rambling Sid Rumpo cassettes From: Roger the Skiffler They were issued commercially, I can't remember whether on tape or disc, but i think they were among UK comedy greats (Goons etc) that I sent Rick Fielding during his last illness as he was a great fan.

05 Jun 19 - 12:49 PM (#3995342) Subject: RE: Rambling Sid Rumpo cassettes From: GUEST,Ebor.Fiddler I have a number of BBC issued CD's containing humour programmes - The Goons, Round The Horne, The Navy Lark - even early Dad's Army (I think the BBC were hoping for some kind of "Comedy Kick-back" from the TV series.) Mr Rumpo is well represented in the Horne shows. I can't remember when I got them, but it would, I think be in the early to imd nineties. |

08 Jun 19 - 10:18 PM (#3995707) Subject: RE: Rambling Sid Rumpo cassettes From: robomatic I'm a fan of RSR. Have some of his stuff recorded off American radio in the 70s probably from Round The Horne. If I had some original recordings I'd digitize 'em. |
09 Jun 19 - 03:04 AM (#3995712) Subject: RE: Rambling Sid Rumpo cassettes From: Dave the Gnome I was contemplating that, Robo, but I think if I were to keep a copy and then send the tapes elsewhere, I may be in breach of copyright laws. |

10 Jun 19 - 11:35 AM (#3995822) Subject: RE: Rambling Sid Rumpo cassettes From: Dave the Gnome Probably not. Anyhow, beachcomber, watch your taddle gropers and make sure your cordwanglers mooly is wogled coz they are on their way :-) |
